Danger Lurked

Danger lurked in each alleyway
pungent smells could not overcome it
fear gathered hanging darkly
Terror striking minds all edgy
creeping fear filling the dark pit
danger lurked in each alleyway
Draughty eerie winds blow fiercely
ahead a faint glow, a light lit
fear gathered hanging darkly
The screams I can hear not earthy
what on earth can be the culprit
danger lurked in each alleyway
An apparition all ghostly
clothed in a scary outfit
fear gathered hanging darkly
I stood peering, the night inky
the shadows moved seeming to emit
danger lurked in each alleyway
fear gathered hanging darkly
